Lotteries in Italy. Italy, however, is afflicted with another plague, even more destructive than that of counterfeiting, more tremendous in its evil results, and which invades every I d< partinent and every class. The Gov- ! eminent itself regulates the lotteries, with the idea, probably, of limiting what could not be avoided, and profiting by it. It is s iid that the annual net profit which it derives from this tutelage is $15,000,- 000. But it is considered only a tem porary measure, the final aim of Italy’s stater mon being to abolish a vice which destroys habits of industry a id encour ugi s crime. It may be considered doubt ful whether this is the best way to do it, l.ut the habit was already deeply root. 1 in the character of the Italians. It is now at least conducted with p rfect hon esty, the highest iuetionaries of the city hiking part in the extraction of the num bers. This ceremony takes place in Rome every Saturday afternoon in :i semi-circular building on the Via lii petta, and is one of the relics of old times which is destined to pass away. In a high balcony in the center ot this convex semi circle are seated a delegate of the Prefect and several other gentle men, who pass the fortunate number from one to the other until it is held up i to the people and called out by a city • guard. The people stand on the street ] with their heads raised mid their eyes , fixed on the balcony until hope is quenched in certainty or satisfied with success. The part of Italy most infected with this vice is Campania, where the annual average for each inhabitant is about $1.50. Rome is second; then follows Tuscany, while Liguria is sixth upon the list. Another clu-s of citizens in Rome redeem it from this stain by industry and saving, the annual medium for every person being thirty-one francs. The system of savings banks is w isely i encouraged by' a few able social econo- , mists, among whom is Lnz.zatti, a Jew I and a member of Parliament. This is the true weapon with which to combat I the vices of idleness, long encouraged by the Papal Government. The i. epli. ; have responded to the invitation w ith I ir greater promptitude than could have been expected. /I'ome Correspond' wr Cincinnati Gazette.

His family relished the sumo food, and pro poses to continue its use. This may be a slanderous statement, but it seems to have emanated from good authority and passes without contradiction. Sagasta’s administration in Spain is eivina sinus of almost republican radi calism. Civil marriages, trial by jury, nnd the legitimization of children born out of wedlock are among the provisions of varying merit by which the most con servative of European nationalities is now startled. • Colonel Steuben and party, tho descendants of the collateral relatives of the illustrious officer who was tho friend of Washington and the engineer of the siege of Yorktown, were warmly received and highly entertained nt Cincinnati.

None of the family can be admitted to the firm unless they have become practical print ers, and each one has his specialty in the office work. Tho Harpers are all blondesand all look alike. Respecting Guiteau’s autobiography the London News says : “ Guiteau has an idea thut the whole civilized world is waiting to hear the minutest details of bis career. The whole civilized world, on the other hand, is waiting to hear that his wretched mischievous life has been abolished, and that the earth no longer supports this quintessence of murderous selfishness nnd silliness.” New Jersey owns the ideal juror of the age. He had not heard of or read Os the case at issue ; docs not take any newspaper ; does not know the name of the President of tho United States; does not know anything about the sanctity of an oath, but knows that an oath is a good thing to use when tho hogs get into the garden ; does not know Jiow old he is, and doesn’t care. One thousand dollars has been sub scribed among the Free Thinkers of Tor onto to aid in the publication in Toronto of the two prohibited works of Paine mid Voltaire, “The Age of Reason” and “ Pocket Theology.” A well known bookseller is prepared to undertake the publication. He has ordered from New York and Chicago fifty copies of each of the works, and ho will not be in the least jmt out if the books are seized. The amount of money which the Peru vian Government lias received from the ale of guano is estimated at $2,400,000,- 000 of dollars.

It’s a great thing to be a philanthro pist. So Mr. Goodheart thought, and at the suggestion of his neighbor, Mr. Snide, he resolved to have a grand pic nic for the poor bootblacks of the city at his elegant country house. So he sent a man to hunt up a lot of the boys and bring them out there one fine afternoon. They came, a good hundred of them, and the old gentlemen received them with smiling faces and kind words. “ Make yourselves right at home, boys, and have just as good a time as you know how to,” he said to them. Then he left them to go it and went into the house. In about ’fifteen minutes his head gardener ernne in and asked him if be had given three of the boys permis sion to ride upon his Alderney cow, and to throw rocks and hard mimes at who ever objected. Mr. G. said “ No,” and went out to see about it, lie finally in duced tho boys to quit that amusement, and then his coachman camo and said if he wanted to have any fish in his trout pond he’d better go and stop the boys from fishing in it. He did so mid began to feel rather annoyed at their proceed ings. But he stood it and didn’t scold. Presently his dog flew by with a bottle attached to his tail, nnd the whole gang se t off in pursuit, and ran over his flow er bods nnd into the conservatory and upset valuable plants, aud did a neap of damage. Then he ordered the gang started for the city, and in hunting them up four were found to have just got the barn afire by smoking in the hay. Vig orous cffoi t.s, however, saved tile build ing and the boys xv<re shipped away s And then Mr, G. sadly told his men to try mid repair the wreck while he went over to see the neighbor who suggested the affair. And they parted foes. And Mr. G. deelnres he is not and never will be a philanthropist. It’s harder than boinor n born. litmtan Past Dogs as Sentries. When any one devises something sen sible every one wonders why no one ever thought of that pmlieular thing be fore, and on this principle a great many people, on learning that Russian sentries, on outposts, are to be assisted by dogs, will pronounce the change exactly the thing. All harm to sentries, and, through their death or capture, to the force of which they form part, comes from enemies who approach stealthily ; the first shot is nhiiosi. invariably fired by the foe instead of the guard. Against an enemy on the sentinel, w’ho must at in', lit i.train liis eyrs in every direction, is at a great, di advantage, whereas n dog lying near him, or in advance of him, would be quid; to note any movement in liis neighborhood, mid thus put. tho si'l.ii- ron the alert. In the United Stairs nf the present tine the dog might not be of m’li -.1. service to the army, but it is strarge that In’s ; ecuiinr facilities ate not appreciat 'd by private indi viduals who require a guard. Adogin hide a hou. <■ is worth two watchmen on flu- ont ido, for while the latter may bo bribed or surprised, tho dog cannot be reached, except by some one entering the house, mid before the same could be done, the tuiiiuiil would have alarmed those inside, and given them an oppp >r tunity to defend their own. A lively dog, and the smaller he is the more satisfactory ho will bo for household purposes, will scare a burglar away as soon us he raises his voice ; for no mat ter how brave a thief may bo he sees no profit, in entering a house where the people are aroused in time to fire on him from the dark. If instead of cherishing huge brutes to lie out of doors after dark, make (fight hideous and go visit ing while they are supposed to be on iluty, tho householder ivonld devote his attention to a Skye terrior and give him free range of the house at night, he might consider his property safe from molestation by thieves.— New York He, aid. A story is told of an exchange of courtesy between a Scotch minister and his parishioner, which is characteristic of both. The minister was introduced into a country living, and, in his round of parochial visits, called at the cottage ot a little tailor. Taking a seat unin vited, he proceeded to talk, but found it hard work, as he met with no response. The tailor sat upon the table, stitching in sulky silence. At length ho spoke. “ Sir,” he said, “I regard it as .an un warrantable intrusion your entering my house, and I ask you in wha : capacity you come?” “My good man,” was the reply, “ I come as your parish clergy man—it is my duty to know all my parishioners. I know you don’t attend church, but that is no reason why we should not be friends.” To which the tailor responded : “Idinna regard ye as a minister of Christ, but us a servant of Satan ; if ye come as a gentleman, well and good ; but as a minister I refuse to receive you,” which could hardly be called courteous, but the tailor’s polite ness was outrivaled by his minister’s, who, rising, said : “My good fellow, be pleased to understund that it is only as your parish clergyman that I over dreamt of visiting you ; when I visit as a gentleman I don’t visit persons in yonr position in society,” with which he de rnirtod.

Your wife should have everything in readiness for you, but you should not do anything for her. Win n your wife asks for money, give her a nickle ; ask her what she wants with it, and when she tells you, ask her if she can’t do without it. Then go down town and spend ten times the amount for cigars, for they are a necessity. Go down town of an evening, stand aro md on the street corner mid talk pol itics ; its more interesting than to stay at home with your family. Charge your wife not to gossip, but you can spin all the yarns yon wish. Have your wife get up mid make fires, but don't get up yourself till the rest of the family are eating breakfast, as you might take cold. Wear old clothes, aud make yourself as untidy as possible until your wife’s health fails, then it would be best for yon to fix up some, for in all probability you will want another when she is gone.
